Simple... cd /dev; ./MAKEDEV tty10; ./MAKEDEV tty11 ... and so on ...
(yeah you could script it;)
... if your MAKEDEV doesn't support ttys 00-63 then you'll need to use
mknod like this: mknod /dev/tty15 c 4 15
my current ones just as a sample:

(haven't bothered to create more 'cause haven't bothered to think how on
how to bind keys to 'em nor haven't needed 'em;)
anyway to use the ones above 24 you'll need to add 'em to your keymap...
(haven't yet done this thing in X (Xmodmap?) ... you'll need to c-a-Fx to
a console X knows about and then use the alt-fxx or whatever)
sample from my current keymap (which I load with "loadkeys
/usr/lib/kbd/keytables/NoN.map") :
# addon map - DON'T use standalone - designed as fi-latin1.map addon
# By: tbittih@pal.xgw.fi
keycode 29 = Control
keycode 42 = Shift
keycode 54 = Shift
keycode 56 = Alt
keycode 59 = F1 F11 Console_13
control keycode 59 = F1
alt keycode 59 = Console_1
control alt keycode 59 = Console_1
control AltGr keycode 59 = Console_25
keycode 60 = F2 F12 Console_14
control keycode 60 = F2
alt keycode 60 = Console_2
control alt keycode 60 = Console_2
control AltGr keycode 60 = Console_26
keycode 61 = F3 F13 Console_15
control keycode 61 = F3
alt keycode 61 = Console_3
control alt keycode 61 = Console_3
control AltGr keycode 61 = Console_27
-snip-you-should-be-able-to-figure-out-what's-missing-
keycode 88 = F12 F12 Console_24
control keycode 88 = F12
alt keycode 88 = Console_12
control alt keycode 88 = Console_12
control AltGr keycode 88 = Console_36
keycode 97 = Control
keycode 100 = AltGr
# addon - control left & control right... "sacrificed" F234 and F235 for 'em
keycode 105 = Left
control keycode 105 = F234
alt keycode 105 = Decr_Console
keycode 106 = Right
control keycode 106 = F235
alt keycode 106 = Incr_Console
# also "sacrificed" esc[T~ and esc[U~ ... does anything use these actually?
string F234 = "\033[T~"
string F235 = "\033[U~"
#end - ok I snipped out some (useless) things but who cares ;)
also a .inputrc if you'll want to use the control-left / -right :
set meta-flag on
set convert-meta off
set output-meta on
"\e[U~": forward-word
"\e[T~": backward-word
... irc script available if you want those two keys (and other nice keys too)
Guess I should stop wasting time on writing this thingy, right?
